Did he soften up between 1906 and 1919? Lol
At least given the era, changes are they're going really slowly so the dog is probably fine. Probably.
I noticed too, but don't mind. The general idea is "this really grinds my gears" and that includes things people not making their mind up at a restaurant or chit chatting instead of getting out of the way for customers, etc. To be fair, those would be memes in modern era, too.
The fact that animal abuse peeves the author is indeed based for 1919, though.
Oh for sure he's full of shit. Memories being fragile or not, haha.
I got a glance at Reddit and it was like 70% of the political memes and unlike here, the fact checkers were buried in the comments.
Didn't get me wrong, I love the meme and will continue to use it but I don't want people to get the idea it's not satire. We don't want a new Birds Aren't Real type situation where a meme gets out of hand!
My 2 year old, when prompted to hit any key, hit the power button instead.
Anyway, the answer is a swift kick of my desk to move my mouse cause that seems to wake it up.
Uh, real life image of a civilization run where I never upgraded my phalanx? Lol
But, it's Newsweek! There's no more reputable source than that!
Huh, first time I've seen a photo of her. She looks good! I wonder why I had it in my head she'd look like that shithead father of hers.
Maybe, it'd have to be rooted in one of the earlier parts of the brain though, which aren't quite as good with memories. They tend to manifest as feelings and triggers though, like a phobia (at least, that's the hypothesis, you can't exactly test that by torturing babies). Which, makes sense to me, since the amygdala is pretty good to go at that age, lol.
That's not to say it's impossible (the brain is very plastic), just that the more dedicated parts for that aren't there and your understanding of the world isn't good enough to make sense of it. In your case, you wouldn't need the latter to at least understand the feelings at the time, though. I for instance have a pretty sure memory of getting wiped out by someone in a swing in preschool, though I can't even remember visiting Disneyland in 2nd grade lol.
I mostly only bring it up because my sister swears she has district memory at that age and I know she's having reconstructive memory bias to change her memories to better reflect her current world view. I was there, after all, and it's a pet peeve of mine ever since! Lol
I kind of hate that he and I share the same long eyelash gene. It's not a choice to have such long, luscious and beautiful eyes!
At least I still have fucked significantly less couches though.
I hear accounts like that, but there's a fair amount of evidence that our minds like to fill in the blanks on memories we hear about. The classic example from psych class involves experiments where they implanted memories of getting lost at age 5 in a mall. The stories were fabricated, but two alarming things stuck with me: people added details to these 'recollections' and even after being debriefed on the experiment, a sizable portion continued to believe that happened to them at 5.
(Keep in mind, the human brain also isn't really developed enough to retain memories like that, let alone give them enough meaningful context to reflect on them in a meaningful way)
All that's to say your memories of the space needle probably have a lot filled in from your knowledge of the place and the stories your folks told you.

Heck of a lot more straightforward than yesterday!
Ah, yes, Netherlanders are indeed 4x taller than Indonesians, but at least the Indonesians get better saving throws from their size.
It's the badger badger badger of a generation. Even if they stop referring to it, it'll live haunting their thoughts decades later.
I'm so glad my daughter is coincidentally also named Vivian. It's a beautiful name for any woman.
That's what I was thinking, having saw that the other day with my kid. Literally that exact scenario was that episode lol
